On December 31, 2025, IBN signed a one-year Corporate Communications Agreement with CMX Gold & Silver Corp. under which IBN will act as an independent contractor to expand CMX’s investor awareness program. The agreement covers strategic messaging, media outreach, digital campaigns and targeted investor presentations designed to highlight CMX’s Clayton Silver Project in Idaho. At conclusion of the initial term, both parties retain the option to negotiate an extension on mutually agreed terms.

Under the base agreement, IBN will receive a guaranteed fee of USD 3,000 per month, totaling USD 36,000 over the twelve-month term. This recurring revenue stream provides clear visibility for IBN’s near-term financial planning. In addition to the base fee, CMX has reserved the right to engage IBN for supplementary “bolt-on” marketing solutions—such as webinar production or bespoke investor roadshows—at additional negotiated rates, offering upside potential to IBN’s top-line.

Securing CMX, a publicly traded mining exploration company, as a client enhances IBN’s profile in the resource sector. The assignment gives IBN direct exposure to a flagship asset with a 1,028-acre land package in Idaho’s Bayhorse Mining District. Successful execution of the program could position IBN to win follow-on contracts with exploration and junior mining companies seeking similar investor communications support, potentially driving a 10–15% increase in its annual contract pipeline over the next 12 months.
